About the Role

The General Manager and Chief Executive Officer (GM and CEO) will champion the company's belief that investment in water and its systems is critical to the social, economic, and environmental health of the community. 

Reporting to the Board of Commissioners, as the GM and CEO you will provide leadership and will establish a strong foundation of trust and credibility with the team and strengthen and foster a positive culture through empowerment, engagement and collaboration. As GM and CEO, you will also develop, recommend and implement high-quality business strategies and plans which align with short and long-term objectives set by the Board, and develop and oversee annual capital and operating plans and budgets.

The Ideal Candidate

As the ideal candidate, you bring a strong track record of executive leadership experience in a complex, unionized, multi-stakeholder environment, preferably within a regulated utility business. Your exceptional communication and people skills, combined with high emotional intelligence, enable you to connect authentically with a range of audiences and interest holders, building trust and fostering collaboration. With strong business acumen, you are adept at digesting and distilling complex technical, financial, and operational information. You are innately customer service focused and understand the financial management processes and the business systems necessary to successfully operate a regulated utility.

An outstanding relationship builder with strong collaboration and negotiation skills, you are able to work and partner effectively with a broad range of stakeholders including Boards, regulators, government representatives, elected officials, developers, consultants, community leaders and residents alike. You are a highly approachable, high-integrity and culturally competent leader who embodies a deep commitment to equity, diversity, inclusivity, accessibility, sustainability and creating a culture of employee safety and wellbeing in all that you do. You inspire the confidence, engagement and trust of your team, the community and key partners of your organization.
